Annie Woods

Bio

I am the owner and operator of Dark Wood Farm, a bio-intensive one-acre market garden serving 75 Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) members and several local restaurants in Northern Kentucky and Greater Cincinnati. My goal is to grow the best tasting, cleanest food available, and to do so in a manner that promotes biodiversity, builds soil, and does as little harm to the environment as possible. It is my goal to continue to expand the farm to produce more food for my community, and to employ more young people (especially women) interested in farming as a career. This grant makes it possible to expand the farm’s labor force to take on a new growing space in the hopes of doubling our production in 2020.
